James Knox

Biography of James

Hailing from Levens, a small town in the county of Cumbria, James has built a reputation as a solid climber ever since his junior days, when he won the National Hill Climb Championships. Over the years, the Brit proved he’s cut for both tough one-day and stage races, the results he earned in 2017 speaking of his outstanding talent. After moving to the World Tour, he took it one step at a time and slowly but surely began showing his skills (from the Tour de Wallonie to the Tour of Turkey), while bringing an invaluable contribution to many of the team’s astonishing 73 victories in 2018. This year, he’s keen on continuing to learn and go for a personal result if the opportunity will present itself.
